A French Sauvignon is Good with Barbecued Salmon with Dill and Lemon

We tried Grilled Salmon with Dill and Lemon from bbq.about.com The salmon is marinated in lemon juice, lemon zest, garlic, oil and dill and then barbecued. We served the salmon with baked potato wedges, mushrooms and tomatoes.

To go with the salmon we decided on a bottle of Touraine Sauvignon Blanc “Les Hauts Lieux”, Bougrier 2013, a French white from the Wine Society.

We thought the nose was slightly grassy and the taste was fresh and lemony with some tropical fruits. The finish was crisp. A good match with the barbecued salmon.
